New Telescope;The VST Telescope

The VST Survey Telescope,is a visible light telescope equipped with an Omega cam camera and is now the largest telescope on the planet.It's the new piece in ESO's Paranal Observatory and has already produced some very impressive photographs.


The VST survey telescope will cover a wide range of wavelengths from ultra violet through visible to almost infra red. The telescope will cover a wide view of the sky quickly and in deep focus making it a telescope for studying movement of objects through space.Some scientists believe it will be used to give early warning of impending impacts of the Earth from space born objects such as asteroids and meteors.
